I figure that since I am spending a decent amount of money on perfume..I really do not want it competing with my lotion! This is a fantastic product! Makes my legs and body so soft-and if I want scent--I just spray it in my hand over the lotion. I ran out of this a few weeks ago--I could tell the difference of using something else in one day! And I have done "The Search" for an excellent body lotion--everything from pure shea to the $$$ products. This one wins hands down!
